Testimonials

C.C. Chapman is the perfect blend of knowledgeable and understandable. His speeches are dynamic, energetic, and packed with information to consider for the future. When C.C. spoke at the Inbound Marketing Summit, he drew great applause, and a crowd of people anxious to follow up on his ideas. He’s a professional that enhances any conference that needs to understand the future in down-to-earth terms.

C.C. is a dynamic, informative and inspirational speaker. Students and instructors alike responded to his passion and energy, and all were impressed by his knowledge and experience. Every educational institution should give their students the opportunity to be inspired by C.C.

Lots of speakers are knowledgeable about their subject, but what sets C.C. apart is the passion and energy he brings to any talk, both in person and online — say, in a webinar. (Which, by the way, is not easy to do.) If you want someone to inform your audience, hire any old speaker. But if you want someone to also ignite and inspire, hire C.C.

CC brings a warmth and sense of place to each of his speaking engagements. As one of New Hampshire’s native sons, I was honored to have him as one of the featured speakers at Social Media Breakfast NH in the Upper Valley. Not one to make a cookie cutter presentation, he created an intimate atmosphere of fun and learning for the attendees that kept the buzz going long after he was done. If you haven’t had a chance to hear CC Chapman speak, you need to put it on your conference Bucket List.

I am part of the small team within my company working on developing strategy, policy and tactics to get started with social media. While researching social tools for business, I invited the Senior Vice President of Communications to attend C.C.’s Facebook for Business Webinar and she left the room more enthusiast about social media than I’ve ever seen her before. She was furiously taking notes, smiling and commenting the entire time on the great information he shared. She’s now a believer. We used much of C.C.’s advice in our Facebook launch and feel confident he provided us with true best practices for success online. C.C. has a gift when it comes to explaining social tools for business, sharing relevant examples to illustrate key ideas and engaging his audience. He’s definitely got the chops to teach us all a thing or two.

Photographer

If I had to choose a style, I’d say my photos are a mix of documentary, travel and lifestyle photography. While I may not enjoy taking head shots, I love to shoot faces. I rarely go anywhere without a camera in my hand and I’ve been fortunate to see my photos on the pages of Rolling Stone and The Wall Street Journal.

I’m currently shooting with a Canon 80D, an iPhone 7+ and a Chroma 4k Drone.

Marketing Consultant

With over twenty years of marketing, online media and community building experience I have the skills and experience to help your organization no matter the size. Previous clients have included The Coca-Cola Company, American Eagle Outfitters and HBO.

I focus on social good/impact marketing, content marketing and brand strategy. My favorite clients are NGOs, nonprofits or brands looking to make a difference in the world.

Keynote Speaker

I’m happiest when on stage educating and inspiring an audience of any size, anywhere in the world.

I have spoken at everything from large international events, corporate retreats and at special gatherings of unique individuals. If you need someone who will inspire, educate and entertain your audience I’d love to chat.

Advocate & Volunteer

I believe in using my skills, time and voice to champion causes that are important to me. I’m especially interested in anything military, dogs or children focused.

Teacher

On top of all that I’m a proud life long New Englander who was born and raised in New Hampshire, but now resides outside of Boston.

I married my high school sweetheart, have two amazing kids and love being a dad.

I’ve been online since 1989, began blogging in 2002 and podcasting in 2004.

Previous endeavors I created include Accident Hash, Passion Hit TV, Digital Dads and The Advance Guard.

Tattoos, travel and the outdoors turn me on. There are fewer things more perfect than a well-done cocktail, a delicious meal or live art of any sort. I love my GORUCK, Field Notes and am a proud Misfit.

To understand me is to understand that I try to live a purposeful life every day that is full of adventure, love and making the world around me a better place for all.

Fun Bio

You’d be hard-pressed to find a more multi-faceted or enthusiastic creative/strategic partner in the marketing and content creation fields. This greatly hails from C.C.’s unstoppable combination of marketing experience and savvy (which a great many professionals claim to have), and incalculably valuable “on the ground” knowledge and insight as an influential content creator himself (which a great many professionals do not). The result is a best-of-both-worlds mashup of marketing expertise.

C.C. Chapman sports the pro cred to be a talker (working closely with such clients as American Eagle Outfitters, Coca-Cola, HBO and Warner Bros.), and the passion and gumption to be a doer (creating content for the emerging Online Dad market, marketing professionals, music fans and more). He’s helped create, manage and execute ambitious online and offline marketing campaigns for startups and multinationals — and has the invaluable good sense to know which outreach strategies work with audiences, and which ones fall flat.

He authoritatively speaks your language. He speaks your CMO’s language. Most important, he’s fluent in your market’s language. It’s a killer double-chocolate-and-peanut-butter combination. Contact C.C. to learn how he can help your organization achieve its business goals. There’s, even more, to know about C.C. Chapman if you want to read it — and you should. C.C.’s skills are an embarrassment of riches.
